No matter how short the period is, children should not be left in the car on their own be it with the engine/air-cond on or off.
Below are some examples (non-exhaustive) of what can happen when the child is left alone in the car: -
- the car is being hijacked with the child inside the car;
- the child is kidnapped;
- the child unlocks the door and leaves the car which due to some misadventure, can lead to death;
- the child suffocated in the car; and
- the parents forget about the child left in the car;
So folks, better be safe than sorry. Do not risk the life of your child for your own convenience. If it is such a hassle to bring them with you, then leave them at home (with adult's supervision).
